    2026/10/14

    The Ancient are stacked with listener questions, and after discussing sex in their games, how Evil works for them, whether there are constraints on the PCs other than consequences of their choices, how they would design a fun game about podcasters, how they handle players whose PCs who are down early in a session or longer, or if they are possessed or charmed, they look at the six more questions they didn't get to and panic!

  • The RPG Ancients go Freestylin'!
    2026/09/22

    No listener questions this session, so the RPG Ancients are free of their Geas to talk about whatever strikes their fancy, which is a target rich environment! The ancients talk about new projects, why players hate negative adjustments, how to work with LLMs, editing a manuscript, baseball as an RPG and why it is superior to model compared to other sports, how to visually represent altitude in RPGs, and scads of strange ideas that leak from their decaying, dementia ridden minds! Come join the tortu... I mean fun!

    2026/09/15

    Rob announces he is almost finished with his player facing book for his Majestic Wilderlands RPG, and describes what he is trying to do with it and how he has addressed that.

This is a deep rabbit hole, so take your shovel and your lunch!

  • No Fanmail, So Some Floundering!

    Having no listener questions the Ancients cackle with glee as this condition frees them from their geas and they are free to randomly launch into any topic they damn well feel like! The Ancients enthusiastically steal topics from fora, talk about ChatGPT experiments concerning alternate futures of The Great Society and Jefferson Airplane and Firefly, and ramble freely where their addled brains lead them, finally landing on maneuvers for aircraft and dragons and giant birds and moonshine bootleggers in Alabama. Please ask them questions or nothing is safe!
